Toast 16,232 Posted November 27, 2014 I won't miss her. I enjoyed her earlier books, but her style became horribly pompous and pretentious to the point of being unreadable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bibliogryphon 9,645 Posted November 28, 2014 Surprised Brian Aldiss hasn't popped up to remind everyone that his book Greybeard was much better than Children of Men. I had dropped Phyllis from my DDP theme team this year but had pencilled her in for next year. Bloody typical. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
